This peak is particularly impressive when viewed across the abyss of Mám na Gaoithe from Bengower. Braon can mean 'drip' or 'drop', but may be a personal name here. It is the basis of the surnames Ó Braoin and Mac Braoin, anglicised as Breen and McBreen.
Binn Bhraoin is the 126th highest place in Ireland.Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/122/

Steep-sided, rocky summit.

Short Summary created by Colin Murphy 24 Jun 2014

This approach is via Bengower - see that entry for parking, route etc. From the summit of Bengower, this top is less than 1km as the crow flies, although the ascent is quite energy-sapping. Head directly north dropping to a col more than 200m below, followed by a similar ascent up a very steep rocky slope. The summit is well defined and marked by a cairn.
